    We've all seen Knucklehead before, but here is is again :-D  By the way he is a "real" dog, in case there's any doubt. 

    Then there's Remedy, his partner in crime...

     Then we have Evo the evil kitty and the gang leader...  

    And last, my Mojo, the coolest pet I have....

     

    I'm surprised there seems to be more cat people than dog people!  I love kitties!  The pictures of all the pets are amazing!  They're all so cute!  This thread made my day, I think sometimes I like my pets more then I like my kids..... lol

    We have 3 cats, 3 rats, and a parakeet! Someday, when we have a bigger place and more money, I'd like to get a dog! :)

    We have 3 cats, Brody 3 year old maine coon, Maeby 2 year old tuxedo, and Kaylee 10 month old black cat. All of them are family, my babies! 2 of them sleep on the bed with us!

    I also have 3 caged rats, all of which I love and wish I had time to let them out more often. As we as a green parakeet named Zephyro, 5 years old.

    My husband will occasionally feed the cats, but 99% of the responsibility falls to me. Though I do look forward to the day that I can start teaching my little boy the responsibilities of caring for and loving animals!

    This is Katzen. I adopted her in Germany and she has been with us for 8 years.  She has no front claws (doesn't know that), thinks she's a wild animal, and hates me to DEATH but luuuuuuuuvs her daddy.  As you can see. She is a brat but she is one of the family!

    Here's another one, her typical attitude.

    I have:

    duke-great Dane/German shepherd mix that is now 11. ( he was what sold me on df :) )
    Willie-my 7 year old pit bull who is an absolute baby
    Denali-the 2 year old charity case that I was suckered into keeping and bottle feeding at 3 days old (damn vet's office)

    and then.....
    spook- my 17 pound 8 year old black cat that is the boss of the house
    Stella- a 7 year old calico that turns into such a love whore when other guys are around.

    I do everything for everyone. chasing after dd8mos lets me check food and water constantly since she is always in it :)

    Oh boy, you've tempted the crazy cat lady (Me!)
    My first cat is Sophie, she's a purebred Himalayan and the Queen of the house. All the other animals know not to fuck with Miss Squishyface. She is 6, and I got her when I was pregnant with my son. She generally keeps to herself, we don't see her much and I have to drag her out to give her a perfunctionary snuggle every now and again or I feel like a terrible cat momma. She won't come to you, you have to go to her. Diva.
    Sebastian is my big baby. When I got him I saved him from a neglectful home. He was this little bit of orange covered in about 200 fleas. I fixed him up and carried him around the house in my arms for 6 months and now he won't ever leave me alone lol biggest cuddle bug ever. He is the only cat I've ever met who loves his belly rubbed. And a mouthpiece! Holy fuck, the little shit never shuts up lol. Attitude in cats clothing.
    Next is Sawyer aka Tiny Cat, because she stopped growing at about 5 months old. she will be a year next month lol. She is very quiet and loving. Let's my son carry her around, wrap her in blankets like a baby, she's a pure sweetheart. I'm pretty sure her mom and dad were closely related.
    Our newest addition to the feline zoo is Bianca, a little grey and brown tabby. She's a little bitch. All she does is bite me and try to climb me like Everest. And track her little poo paws all over my stuff. I might like her some day, but she is DH's little baby. She sleeps on him every night.

    Last but not least, my jack russell terrier Isobel (Bella). She's about two and she's a nutcase. Barks at everything, so much energy you could light the empire state building if you plugged it into her ass.
    But I have never loved a dog more than I love her. She's the sweetest, most sensitive little shit. She's albino, she's got a few spots under her fur but on top she's pure white. She's gorgeous. She was thrown out of a moving car and brought into a shelter for JRT's and I was on the waiting list, so they called me. She had a nasty ear infection and had multiple behavioal issues, but after a lot of love and patience she's so much better today :) She's very very obsessive and can get aggressive if someone she doesn't know comes near me, but that's a small dog thing I hear.

    The responsibilities for all pets falls on me. I feed and water them all every day, clean litter boxes 1-2 times daily, and walk Bella for 45 minutes a day sometimes twice.

    This is my doogie puppy bubby boy.  His name is Arnie (short for Arnold Schwarzenegger) and he is 6 years old, he is a golden retriver/husky mix.  He may be an asshat sometimes but we love him lots.  Oh he also thinks he is a lap dog, and part cat.

    And we have our bitch turtle.  She likes to bite, and hates being in her tank, and hisses at everything.

    @Thefinder turtles hiss? Lol, I never knew that.

    The only pet we have atm is a 16 week old long-haired piebald dachshund.  The guy we got her from said she's a mini, but she looks bigger than a mini to me.  We are going to the vets tomorrow so maybe they can tell us.
    Molly Abigail is what we named her.  Love love love this dog.  She was one of three girls left from the litter, and I tell people she picked me.  She peed on me when we went to get her.  And yes, that's her on my profile picture.

    Over the years we've had a ton of pets though, a rabbit, countless hamsters, i've had two cats, and three dogs, but they were all pets I had before getting married.  Molly is our first family pet. Family being DH, LO's and me.

    Dh wanted to get an Irish Wolfhound, but we didnt have the room.  So we settled on a dachshund.  We do agree that they're a special breed.

    Just bored so I was taking pictures of 2 of the 3 kitties.  Good & Evil, that's what they look like (though you'd guess wrong as to who is the evil one!) :)

    Spike REALLY hates the flash... so I took it off.  Otherwise every single pic has him with his eyes closed. ;)

    Gosh, I really am turning into a sad old "cat lady".

    And yeah, there is always crap and clutter on any flat surface but I blame DW and kids, because they never put anything away ever!

    I have two cats - Smokey and Bandit.  They were my babies before I had babies and are both total suck-holes.
  • I have a 3 yr old minpin, and well he is super small I like him most days besides when he decides to miss when he pisses. Then the thought crosses my mind of giving him away. You know like last night a midnight when I had just fallen asleep.
